But imagine folding it in half and using the top half as a laptop screen, while the bottom is reserved for a touchscreen keyboard with haptic feedback.
Key facts
- Both ASUS and Lenovo relied on large 16.3-inch OLED screens for their foldable tablets, but the reporter doesn't think Apple needs to go that large
- No matter how you feel about the iPhone Duo and its exorbitant $1,999 price, its existence proves that Apple has finally figured out how to make a foldable
- A 13-inch foldable iPad Pro would still be pretty useful when cut in half
- If that's the case, the reporter is hoping Apple also isn't afraid to copy Samsung's smaller Z Flip phones, which flip down horizontally, and larger devices like Lenovo's X1 Fold and ASUS's ZenBook Fold 17
Summary
Yes, it needs to copy Samsung, ASUS and others. No matter how you feel about the iPhone Duo and its exorbitant $1,999 price, its existence proves that Apple has finally figured out how to make a foldable. This all seems obvious, of course. What better way for Apple's new CEO, John Ternus, to follow up the iPhone Duo's debut than with a smaller iPhone Flip next year? What would an "iPhone Flip" look like? Such a design wouldn't be an exotic innovation for Apple.
